According to L'Equipe, the competition within Didier Deschamps' midfield setup has reached a level where even established talents are not assured of selection. With France expected to name an expanded squad of 25-26 players, the French manager will likely pick around five players for central roles, creating intense competition for just two starting positions.
Camavinga's versatility as a left-back doesn't guarantee him a spot due to multiple specialist options already ahead in the pecking order. His inconsistent season at Real Madrid, disrupted by injuries, has prevented him from building sustained form and establishing himself as a regular starter. This lack of continuity has impacted his international standing, evidenced by his absence in the match against Brazil and limited 25-minute appearance against Colombia.
